AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent text discusses the technical effects of various parameters on image quality in optical image capturing lenses, such as distortion, aberration, and digital zoom function. The technical effects of the patent are how to achieve optimal image quality for digital zoom and how to improve the field of view and overall track length of the lenses. These parameters are analyzed and optimized using simulation techniques to achieve a high-quality image. The patent proposes a method to achieve good digital zoom function by satisfying various relationships between different parameters such as distortion, aberration, focal length ratio, and refractive power.

Problems solved by technology

Although the three-element lens structure is compact, it is not able to produce high quality images.
However, this lens structure requires a longer total optical track length caused by insufficient degrees of freedom in setting system parameters due to too many spherical lenses allocated.
Moreover, it is not easy to attach the glass lenses, and thus the manufacturing process for forming the glass doublet lenses is difficult.
Moreover, the problem of the foregoing optical image capturing lenses is that both of the image quality and the production cost can not be maintained.
However, the difficulty or the cost of the production would be increased by preparing two lenses assemblies or one lenses assembly which can be adjusted.

first embodiment

[0058]The equation of the aspheric surface profiles of the aforementioned lens elements of the first embodiment is expressed as follows:

X(Y)=(Y2 / R) / (1+sqrt(1-(1+k)×(Y / R)2))+∑i(Ai)×(Yi)

[0059]where:

[0060]X is the distance of a point on the aspheric surface spaced at a distance Y from the optical axis relative to the tangential plane at the aspheric surface vertex;

[0061]Y is the distance from the point on the curve of the aspheric surface to the optical axis;

[0062]R is the curvature radius of the lens elements;

[0063]k is the conic coefficient; and

[0064]Ai is the i-th aspheric coefficient.

[0065]In the optical image capturing lenses according to the first embodiment, when a focal length of the optical image capturing lenses is f, an f-number of the optical image capturing lenses is Fno, a half of the maximal field of view is HFOV, and a maximal field of view of the optical image capturing lenses is FOV, these parameters have the following values:
